“Here is a total of five hundred yuan. Count it and consider it as him partnering with you in business. He gave a bride price of one thousand two hundred yuan. I will find a way to pay back the remaining seven hundred yuan slowly.”
Lin Jiao said with a serious expression.
Ye Yun couldn't help but wonder where she got so much money.
Five hundred yuan is equivalent to nearly two years' wages for an ordinary worker. No wonder Jiang Yuan suspected that Lin Jiao had gone astray. It is indeed easy to suspect that someone who had just divorced and was still a young girl could get so much money in such a short time.
Of course, Ye Yun did not think that way.
No matter how wicked people may be, they shouldn't make unfounded assumptions about a hardworking girl.
Furthermore, in this day and age, there is gold everywhere. As long as you have some skills, making money is almost no different from picking it up off the street.
That's what Ye Yun thinks.
Everyone else in the shop thought the same way.
Qin Zheng was surprised that Lin Jiao had found such a lucrative business opportunity. He wondered if he could also get involved.
Tian Xiaohui's eyes lit up with curiosity as she wondered how Lin Jiao, who used to be all about crying, making a scene, and threatening suicide, had suddenly become a rich woman. She wondered if Lin Jiao could help her out!
Ye Yun was unusually silent.
I don't know whether I should accept this money on behalf of Jiang Yuan.
From Lin Jiao's perspective, she also believed that the money should indeed be returned to Jiang Yuan to settle the score.
However, according to Jiang Yuan's wishes, he did not want to accept the money and implicitly considered it as compensation that should be given to Lin Jiao.
If she accepts it without permission, it might displease Jiang Yuan.
Ye Yun decided not to get involved in this matter. She handed the large sum of money to Lin Jiao and made an excuse to explain: "You're late. Da Lin and the others set off early this morning and should be on the train heading south by now. You should just give this money to Jiang Yuan directly."
"ah?"
Lin Jiao was taken aback. Why did Baldy Lin and the others leave so quickly?
"How about I leave the money with you first? Anyway, Bald Lin and the others are going to go a second time, so this can be the next investment!"
"...Aren't you afraid they won't do it again?"
"Don't worry, they'll definitely make money on this trip to Yiwu, and if they do, they'll definitely go again," Lin Jiao said confidently, patting her chest.
Ye Yun raised an eyebrow and couldn't help but look the girl in front of her up and down.
But she still didn't want to accept the money.
"Oh, Ye Yun, please accept it. Besides you and Qin Zheng, I really don't know who else to ask." Seeing that she was hesitant to accept it, Lin Jiao shook her arm and pleaded softly.
Ye Yun blurted out, "You can go find Da Lin and the others too."
"Forget it."
Upon hearing this, Lin Jiao pouted and said, "That bald guy is not only stupid but also incredibly arrogant. He glares at me whenever he sees me and doesn't reason with me at all. I don't want to go looking for him."
Ye Yun, "..."
How about this?
Qin Zheng spoke calmly.
"You want to pay it back, but Jiang Yuan doesn't want it. You really want to pay it back, and the root of the problem is that you both want peace of mind. He feels that leaving the money with you is a way of compensating you, and that puts his mind at ease; you feel that only by paying him back can you avoid feeling indebted, and that puts your mind at ease, right?"
"Why don't you two just not take this money? Ye Yun and I will keep it for you."
"I will invest in businesses for Jiang Yuan in his name, trying to maximize the profit of this money, so that this money in my hands is just like it is in Jiang Yuan's hands. You can consider this money as a return to Jiang Yuan, is that acceptable?"
"Great! Absolutely fantastic!"
Lin Jiao was overjoyed upon hearing this, and excitedly clasped her hands together to thank Qin Zheng repeatedly: "Thank you, you are such a kind person!"
Qin Zheng, "..."
Now you're afraid of him just because you see him?
Women change their minds so quickly.
"There's one more thing."
Ye Yun picked up the conversation, understanding Qin Zheng's meaning. She added more carefully, "We still need to make things clear. To put Jiang Yuan at ease, we will keep this from him. Can you accept that?"
"Accept it, we must accept it."
Lin Jiao nodded quickly, as long as she could return the money to Jiang Yuan.
As Qin Zheng said, all she wanted was peace of mind. It didn't matter who had the money, as long as she returned it to Jiang Yuan.
She wasn't worried about where the money went.
Given Qin Zheng and Ye Yun's character, they would rather starve than embezzle this money.
"Okay." Seeing that she had no objections, Ye Yun nodded and said, "This money will eventually be returned to you or Jiang Yuan. Qin Zheng and I only accepted it temporarily to put your minds at ease. It may be a few months later, or a few years later, or even when either you or Jiang Yuan needs this money."
"Also, there are risks involved in investing, and we cannot guarantee that this money will generate the expected returns. We need to make this clear to you in advance."
Lin Jiao nodded in agreement.
"Don't worry, I'm not stupid. I know all about these things."
"Let's draw up a written agreement."
Just to be on the safe side, Ye Yun asked Tian Xiaohui to bring paper and pen, and wrote two written agreements on the spot.
Lin Jiao signed without hesitation.
Even without this written agreement, she wasn't worried. As she said before, she was certain that Qin Zheng and Ye Yun would rather starve than touch the money she was making off with Jiang Yuan.
No problem, that's just how confident I am.
After the agreement was signed, Ye Yun kept one copy, and Lin Jiao accepted the other copy without any hesitation, as a way to put Ye Yun and Qin Zheng at ease.
The atmosphere became much more relaxed.
Ye Yun smiled slightly, her gaze then turning to Lin Jiao with a beaming smile: "I have a question. Can you tell me what way you've found to make money?"
Lin Jiao smiled, pursing her lips, "Guess~"
Ye Yun, "..."
